This year marks the 90th anniversary of the victory of the Long March by the Red Army under the leadership of the Communist Party of China. During the Long March, an epic military trek from 1934 to 1936, Zunyi City in southwest China's Guizhou Province played an important role. The Zunyi Meeting was held here in January 1935 and marked a crucial turning point in the Long March.

Today, Wujiang Village in Zunyi's Bozhou District offers a very different view of the region, with green hills, traditional-style homes, covered bridges and wooden boats along the Wujiang River. The scenic area combines traditional architecture and local culture with modern tourism experiences, from riverside boat rides by day to illuminated bridges and cultural performances at night. It offers a glimpse of the landscape and local life in Zunyi City today.
